Shengyun Li, PhD, MD

Dr. Shengyun Li brings a rare blend of expertise to patient care as a George Washington–trained neurologist and a Harvard‑trained interventional pain specialist. This dual background allows him to approach symptoms through a neuro-pain convergence—evaluating nervous system function and pain generators together rather than in isolation. By merging neurologic precision with interventional techniques, Dr. Li helps patients reach more accurate diagnoses and clearer, more effective treatment pathways.

Known for keeping skills at the leading edge, Dr. Li continuously integrates evidence‑based innovations and precision-targeted therapies into his practice. He emphasizes multimodal pain mapping and individualized treatment plans so that each patient receives thoughtful, thorough care tailored to their unique neurologic and pain profile. Patients benefit from one dedicated physician who coordinates advanced diagnostics and minimally invasive options with a focus on meaningful functional …improvement.

Patients appreciate Dr. Li’s combination of technical depth and personal attention—one experienced clinician who guides care from evaluation through treatment. Below are common conditions and advanced services Dr. Li evaluates and manages:

• Comprehensive neurological evaluation and electrodiagnostic testing (EMG/NCS)
• Chronic neck and back pain, including radiculopathy and spinal stenosis
• Sciatica and neuropathic pain (peripheral neuropathy)
• Headache and migraine disorders
• Complex regional pain syndrome and failed back surgery syndrome
• Image-guided injections and epidural steroid injections
• Diagnostic nerve blocks and trigger point injections
• Radiofrequency ablation and peripheral nerve ablation techniques
• Spinal cord stimulation and dorsal root ganglion (DRG) therapies

This integrated approach positions Dr. Li as a singular resource for patients seeking advanced, coordinated neurologic and interventional pain care.
